the best me 6 Posted August 1, 2006 Dont' panic yet, it would seem EVERYone has some bit of scar tissue around the band. That tissues was pulled away to allow the band to go around. I have heard that scar tissue has interfered with replacing a new band after the old has been removed? A complete unfill should get rid of your heartburn problems. Watch what you eat while unfilled. After you have given your body and band a break, maybe you can start back on fills slowly and carefully. Don't be upset! Read up and find out what you can do to help yourself...a change in eating? some reflux/acid reducing medication? I'm not sure what else you have going on, but it sounds like this is just a bump in the road. Good luck! Keep us posted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
